As the sun sets on the banks of the Navesink, the entire community is invited to bring lawn chairs or blankets to enjoy a lovely evening filled with music and dancing in Marine Park. Concertgoers can enjoy classics like Crazy for You and catch a glimpse of a shooting star during Rossini's fiery William Tell Overture. Film aficionados may even hear a familiar tune from a galaxy far, far away. For guests of all ages, Sunday in the Park... with the Symphony promises to be an enjoyable summer's evening that celebrates the fun and familiar in Red Bank's picturesque riverfront park.

"After the great success of last year's event, we are overjoyed to welcome the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra back to Marine Park," commented James Scavone, executive director of Red Bank RiverCenter. "This free family-friendly event is really something the entire community can sit back and enjoy."

This one-of-a-kind musical performance provides patrons with the opportunity to experience the harmonies of the NJSO with breathtaking views of the Navesink River as the backdrop. Those with maritime vessels are encouraged to take advantage of the show's proximity to the river and listen from the water.

Whether coming to town early or staying for an after-show stroll, patrons are encouraged to take advantage of Red Bank's walkable Downtown district. Guests can shop the town's array of boutique retailers, indulge in a sit-down dinner or get an order to-go to bring with them to the sunset performance. This unforgettable musical delight promises to be fun for the entire family. A complete list of restaurants, eateries and shops can be found at www.RedBank.org.

In the event of inclement weather, the concert will be held at Red Bank Regional High School, 101 Ridge Rd., Little Silver, NJ and details will be posted at www.RedBank.org.
